A key part of maintaining a sustainable wardrobe is taking care of the clothes you already own. Why buy something new if you can preserve what you’ve already purchased and loved? It’s a sad truth, but most modern clothing just isn’t built to last with fast fashion and micro-trends driving constant change resulting in poor quality clothing. So much so, it can seem easier to throw away and replace than it is to repair.
But as we know, wearing your clothes for longer is the first step to a more sustainable lifestyle and that is why choosing quality garments, crafted in natural fabrics that stand the test of time is the simplest way forward.
Taking the time to mend and maintain our clothes is all part of the slow fashion movement we feel passionate about. By extending the lifetime of your clothes you are reducing its environmental impact, and in turn, your own footprint on this lovely planet.
